Ainslie's Story

Ainslie Cyopik is a retired professional dancer. She is the driving force behind AinslieWear Design. Ainslie has bridged the gap from professional dancer to professional designer. Having spent 15 years dancing with companies, such as the National Ballet of Canada and Ballet British Columbia, she often found the dancewear available did not quite fit right. Nor did they meet the needs of long rehearsal days. Instead of "just making do", Ainslie created a line of dancewear for herself and with all the qualities she was looking for. Over the years, her reputation grew, and as a designer of dancewear clothing (that not only looked great but was also made with a personal understanding of a dancer's needs). Carrying on her love for the art of dance and a true passion for the grace of its practitioners, Ainslie started a business focusing her design and development of dancewear on a full-time basis in 1997.
